Same guy who two weeks ago saying it wasn't so contagious. Also I didn't really read it as concern about how it had been handled, rather as a recommendation, given the current situation, that the criteria for testing should be expanded.

BTW - I don't doubt that the number of cases is much higher than what has actually been detected.
